Fury has already stated his desire to reschedule the clash as soon as possible, with an initial date being mooted in June, dispelling the idea that he could retire before taking on Usyk.

“There is absolutely no truth in this, none whatsoever,” Brown told Sky Sports News when pressed about reports stating that his client may retire. “Tyson is raring to go.”
